What have people done to replace the obsolete fuel line #10038113? It's part flexible and part metal.

A prior thread mentioned replacing it with some part numbers from Napa. Has anyone else run into this issue?

#23 in the lower right is obsolete part #10038113.

 

Looks to me #44 is a hose to the charcoal canister.
Can you use those dorman fuel line repair kits?

 

I stand corrected, the fuel sender to fuel filter line is #23 in the lower right portion of the photo. The tighter bends make it more difficult to bend in house. It would be considerably easier and preferred to purchase a prebent line for #23 from the fuel sender to the fuel filter. The connection is a GM inverted flare.

Worst case senario is I find a company that offers a GM inverted fuel line to standard fuel line adapter, and have the 3/8" line bent. It may take a few tries with kinking the line, but I don't see another option at the moment.

 

yea the diagrams are hard to read that way.. do they sell flexible metal fuel lines now that were on the subject?

 

I never could find a direct fit replacement for that part. I ended up just getting some AN adapters and -6AN hose to make my own.
